My mum has been a resident for the last 5 months. The care has been first class. I am always informed if anything happens with my Mum. The communication between the home/GP/and family is good. Facilities are first class.

From day one, my mother (and family) have been very happy with the support provided at Bilton Hall Nursing Home. Lots of smiling faces from the staff who show great professional care and kindness in what is a difficult time for my mother and my family. I would not hesitate to recommend Bilton Hall to anyone. Keep up the great work!

Always, I look forward to visiting Bilton Hall Nursing Home to spend quality time with my lovely wife. The carers are friendly, efficient (competent), smiling. Long may this continue.

I have found the staff at Bilton Hall Nursing Home to be very caring and include all residents. The food is plentiful and varied. The surroundings are clean and well-maintained. All of the staff work very hard and there seems to be good team spirit. I am happy with this care home.

Sadly my cousin died in July after 3 years in the care of Bilton Hall. I found the staff to be very friendly, and approachable and, more importantly, they were kind and caring towards my cousin who always seemed pleased to see staff when they visited her room, despite her problems and being totally bed-bound. I saw staff interacting with other residents in the public areas and they were always respectful and kind and spoke with good humour, obviously enjoying their work. I was kept well informed of any issues, and on the occasion of a more serious problem was able to speak to the temporary manager about it. I always felt the home was clean, none of the stale odours found in some care homes. In the end, my cousin was well looked after, as I was at this difficult and upsetting time.

Bilton Hall is not the most modern home but it is homely and the staff create a lovely atmosphere. I can see gradual improvements since my mother moved in. Mum is happy, safe, and well cared for which are my main priorities.

The home is shabby and requires refurbishment. Areas often smell although the new managers have improved things somewhat. The gardens and car park areas need tidying up. The staff are pleasant and friendly and kind to the residents but seem to be short in numbers. Agency staff are not the answer. My resident friend enjoys his cup of tea and piece of cake in the afternoon and says that the food is good. He is contented and well-liked by all the staff who always speak to him.

I have not been a regular visitor to the home. I do know that my cousin was well looked after and loved by the staff. I dealt more with the financial side and I always found the staff so helpful and kind with everything I needed to sort. He has now, sadly, died and at the funeral there were two lovely representatives of Bilton Hall Nursing Home. It is a beautiful building in lovely countryside. I would recommend the home without hesitation.

Convenient location, stunning rural setting. Staff are helpful and friendly at all times. A good atmosphere amongst residents and staff. Some technical difficulties that were overcome in good spirit. My friend seems quite happy here. Good visitor access. A pleasure to visit.

The care my mother receives in Bilton Hall Nursing Home gives me complete peace of mind. She has really settled down and enjoys interacting with the staff. I find the receptionists and staff welcoming and kind, nothing is too much trouble for any of them. Everyone always has a genuine smile on their faces and are always willing to help if I have a certain request. The home has such a 'family' atmosphere. Well done everyone.

From the moment we walked into Bilton Hall Nursing Home we all knew and feel it was the right place for our brother. Warm and all the staff are very friendly. My brother is very happy he loves joining in with all the activities. Definitely recommend.

My friend became a resident at Bilton Hall Nursing Home in April 2023. The staff were very enthusiastic for her to be there but on day one she was left alone and we had a telephone call from her because she didn’t know where to go and didn’t know where her room was. On our first visit it was extremely warm and when we mentioned this the housekeeper she told us ‘ They just sit around all day’. Our friend sadly passed away in August and when we went to collect her belongings the lady on the desk never even said sorry. All of her personal items went ‘missing’ including jewellery and items we had taken in to help her pass the time and feel at home. We were never advised not to take in personal items. Her clothes had been packed into two bin bags and when we got them home we found they had included three pairs of heavily soiled knickers! This was very distressing. We sent a list of missing items to the care home manager and still haven’t had a reply. Not what you want at such a sad time.

The outside of the building looks very good with plenty of parking spaces. The inside of the home leaves a lot to be desired, could do with an update and some paint. Rooms are very basic, the food seems to be well prepared and looked appetising.
27 March 2023
Overall the staff are very friendly towards residents and visitors alike, always smiling and welcoming. Unfortunately, the overall appearance of the home and grounds seems neglected and could do with a good overall. Including paving slabs outside the main entrance with are loose and therefore a trip hazard. So much more could be done to tidy the grounds up to enhance people's stay. On the last 3 occasions of visiting my mother my wife who is a nurse has had to ask for bed sheets and a duvet cover for my mother, which came almost immediately but we should not have to be asking. At over £1000 per week, I expect more for a lady who has spent her life caring for others.

All the staff and management worked so hard to offer a loving, caring home-from-home experience for my father. Nothing was too much trouble, you could feel the love and warmth throughout the building. Dad passed away at the end of December, both him and all our family were treated with dignity and respect throughout the short time dad spent in your care. I would recommend Bilton Hall to anyone looking for first-class care. It's a special place!

I have to say what a lovely, caring environment Bilton Hall provides. The staff simply cannot do enough for the residents of the home. Bilton Hall provided an excellent stepping stone for Mum to come out of hospital and receive a few weeks of respite care before moving back closer to home. Thank you ever so much to all the staff at Bilton Hall, you do an amazing job!

The home is sat on beautiful grounds, well kept and a real delight to take my father for a walk in the wheelchair. The staff were warm and caring, starting from the moment you entered with the admin team. I couldn't recommend the place more highly.

On arrival by ambulance, Mum was warmly greeted by reception, care and nursing staff, who immediately made her feel welcome and at home. I cannot praise the staff highly enough for their care and love, which was evident at all times. The Manager made a point of introducing himself to Mum, which was a lovely, personal touch. Mum was taken to a large, comfortable room with a garden view. Mum's care was put into place immediately, and we left feeling very reassured that her needs would be fully catered for. The family visited regularly and found the care to be first-class and consistent. Mum was treated with dignity at all times. The nursing staff kept the family fully informed of Mum's condition. Staff went the extra mile by making a huge fuss of her 100th birthday, producing a delicious home-baked cake. Sadly Mum passed away after two weeks, without having fully experienced the beautiful surroundings and wonderful amenities on offer. I cannot thank the staff enough for their kindness and professionalism.

I am very satisfied with the care given to my aunty. She is very happy and refers to the staff as her friends who will do anything she asks for. Over the two years, we have been involved with Bilton Hall, the staff have kept me informed of her progress and any changes to her care as she is now in need of nursing care. During the pandemic, the staff worked tirelessly to enable contact with families.
